Best version of this song, live at Winterland, unfortunately I saw him perform this on a ‘Day on the Green’ about 8 months later but he still rocked the sh*t out of it, great reaction Brothers.
One of my favorites! I was a teenager when this came out! We were all buying it! And yes the 70's was the best! REAL TALENT! No autotune and they played their own instruments not computerize music!
Definitely, 70's music is the best. I too was a teenager when this came out. My daughter loves the 70's music and says, "I wish I grew up in the seventies. I love the music and the clothes styles."
Me too. I was just addicted to that album. Got in trouble with my parents and the worst punishment they could think of was to hide my Frampton Comes Alive album from me for 2 weeks. They were spot on. That was the best-behaved 2 weeks of my life.
The effect is called a "talk box." A talk box is an effects unit that allows musicians to modify the sound of a musical instrument by shaping the frequency content of the sound and to apply speech sounds (in the same way as singing) onto the sounds of the instrument. Typically, a talk box directs sound from the instrument into the musician's mouth by means of a plastic tube adjacent to a vocal microphone. The musician controls the modification of the instrument's sound by changing the shape of the mouth, "vocalizing" the instrument's output into a microphone.
That is why every single American youngster between the age of 15 to 25 years old had this album playing constantly for about four years straight! Phenomenal song & live performance! Fantastic live album!!!
You are so correct about the era ..( 70's) it really was the best . the 60's was the beginning for ROCK but it took off in the 70's. ..1967 -1975 !!!!!!!!
I was a 17 year old had just graduated high school and was out on my own when I saw them at the World Series Of Rock in Cleveland Ohio in 1977 I think it was. I had Frampton Comes Alive and life was beautiful in that Era.
Frampton comes alive it is widely regarded as one of the best live rock albums. 🍷🍷I woke up this morning with a wine glass in my hand who’s wine what wine where the hell did I dine?🎶
Peter Frampton has to be in the top ten guitarists of all time list. I saw him when he was David Bowie's guitarist on his Glass Spiders tour and he shredded like a boss the whole show!
If you have the chance to go to see him on tour in 2023 definitely do so. I just saw him a couple of weeks ago and he still sounds just like that. He’s 73 and has to sit down to play because he has a degenerative muscle disease but he still sounds INCREDIBLE. I hope you get the chance.
I'm glad you're doing this version as a first listen instead of the Midnight Special video; this is soooo much better. This one makes you feel like you're at the concert, you can really get lost in the sauce! Now you can go watch the video and compare. I was a junior in high School when this came out - yeah, we had it pretty good with our music.
@@dmCurator I think that was me. I made that statement under another comment. The midnight special version is rather boring compared to the link I posted. Plus the msv is an 8 entire mins shorter!!! I've posted this link all thru the comments hoping the dudes see it.
I'm pretty sure up to this point it was the biggest selling live album ever recorded. If you were a boomer into rock in the 70s this *WAS* in your record collection. It wasn't even a question. And although it had been used before, it really introduced a lot of people to the voice box guitar effect. That sound blew people out of the water. I was lucky enough to see him perform this in the early 2000s in Grant Park Chicago and it was every bit as historic as you can imagine. We in the audience played our parts well LOL, and I was suddenly 18 all over again.
Love this album - everyone had this playing all summer long on the hot beaches of Galveston. Saw him in Houston in 78’ doing acoustic w Doobie Brothers. What a concert. Frampton is the best. Thanks for playing !
I just wrote about the same thing before I read your comment. Hey, I'm in Houston. So we already know. Lol. Can you believe we are using words like "lol" to communicate? We didn't have cellphones or computers, but we were happy (and stoned), as hell. They'll never know : )
I am 62 years old. When I was a sophomore in high school, this song was on the radio every half hour. Peter Frampton became a massive rock star in no time.
You guys are right 💯%!! You say this performance was off the charts, and you couldn't be more right! Yes, there are other versions of this song live, but they don't hold a candle to THIS performance. There was definitely magic in the air that night. Every note was perfect, and perfectly executed!! One of the very best live performances ever, no doubt! I was 8 years old when this record came out, and yes, thank goodness for my older siblings in the house, they got it!!! This along with The Eagles Hotel California, Boston, Fleetwood Mac Rumors, that also came out that year...come on man!! 🤘🤘
I was 16 years old when I went to a Peter Frampton concert at Bobby Maduro Baseball Stadium in Miami in 1976. It was a great show, and it was my concert. The talking effect during Frampton's guitar solo was a pedal connected to a wire that ran up to a mouthpiece connected to the microphone. Frampton would use the mouthpiece and varying weight on the pedal to create a talking effect via his guitar. It was really interesting and great to see and hear. Unforgettable.
Gentlemen...I have heard this song hundreds of times in my life and I still get goosebumps, especially when I see this being new to someone who's never heard it. This was the greatest era of music, without question. 1976 was the greatest single year in all genres.
I've seen Frampton do this song live several times and he always put on a great show! I have seen a good percentage of the bands you react to live and I always feel blessed to have been able have actually seen them. It is a real shame that there is nothing out there for guys like you to be able to experience this kinda thing live! Back in the 70's there were no Db limits so you could actually feel the kick drum and bass guitar thumping your body! Your ears would also be ringing for a few days but you really didn't care!
Saw Frampton during the '70s at 17 years old at those famous Day on the Green Concerts in Oakland CA. The music was the best. I'll never forget the 70's music. I may be old but I saw a lot of good bands 😁
Peter Frampton was always a favorite of mine even in his early days in the band HUMBLE PIE, which they had hits of their own. Peter Frampton later caught my attention with the 1975 hit " Show Me the Way". He is best known for his hit album " Frampton Comes Alive! which sold more than 10 million copies. He is a great singer but his guitar playing really stood out." I'm In You" is also a song worth listening to. Oh how I miss the Midnight Special so many great acts back then featured on that show, you guys would have really enjoyed it.
I’m with you on the 2 songs (plus this one we heard). “I’m In You”was the ULTIMATE in sexy for me back then. I haven’t heard it in so long… maybe it still is!😃😆
So glad you reacted to Frampton! He is a LEGEND. That album is especially well-known in the U.S. as one of the top selling albums of all times. Really enjoyed the reaction guys. Thank you!
The talk box is hooked up to the guitar and the two make a sound together by the guitar player simultaneously talking into the box while operating the electric guitar. I THINK(?) David Gilmore used it sometimes but I’m not 100% sure. Peter Frampton is still alive with us today and seems like a very nice guy not that I know him-lol. I remember in the 70’s when I was a little girl I had an older teenager friend/neighbor who called me over to her house one day and brought me into her bedroom, slapped some head phones on me and said”LOOK AT HIM!!😍” It was his “I’m In You” album and I never was the same.Sexxxxyyyyy🥵 😁J in Tx
Actually, the Talk-Box ( back then) was run off of a separate guitar amp with the speakers disconnected and the signal from the guitar going to the box instead. The box had a driver that fed the guitar signal into a long plastic tube and out into the player's mouth, who could mouth the words or just make sounds. The tube usually was mounted on the mic stand, so the guitar sounds ( altered) could be picked up by the vocal mic and sent to the big P.A speakers. The player doesn't sing, the guitar does that, replacing the voice. The first one I heard of in 1970 was made by Kustom Electronics and was enclosed in a psychedelic bag that the player wore strapped to their back. It was called " The Bag" ,but while looking really cool was somewhat awkward to actually use. I first heard it on Iron Butterfly and Steppenwolf's albums around that time. I didn't have one, but held one in the store when nobody was looking. It had a paisley cloth pattern with 3 inch long white fringe around the bottom. Looked a lot like a ladies purse, which probably explains why it wasn't a success until later when somebody else made it into a floor unit, like Frampton used a little later on in the 70s. Today's fx boxes imitate this by plugging a mic and guitar into a circuit that replicates the effect, but you do have to sing into the mic to get any sound, which comes out of the regular guitar amp. It sounds really complicated, but is actually quite simple. At the end of the Talk-Box section you can hear Peter Frampton sing along with the guitar ( voice and Talk-Box ) on the last " Whoa!" . Don't doubt me .
this was their best performance of this song. A friend brought this live version to my house in the 70,s said you got here this to believe it. midnight special was good but i think this performance was the best had just the right atmosphere.
Many girls in the 70's (including myself) had Peter Frampton posters on our walls. The boys had Linda Rondstat in short shorts with roller skates 😂❤. I believe that sound is called a voice box. I think he was the first person to use it but he was closely followed by Joe Walsh from The Eagles
The wife and kids dread this song coming on Sirius on road trips - the volume in the family SUV goes to about 18 to accommodate my rock 'n' roll and artillery ears. This and "Hush" drive the family nuts...
I was there! Right after it hit all of the FM radio stations. It was everywhere. 30 seconds after he starts this song you could hardly see the stage through the smoke! Do You Feel Like We Do? Yes you did, you didn't have a choice. Great show, great album
Great reaction Bros! You are right…. You can’t top the 70s for the sheer quantity of great music! This one was one of those feel good songs that could make everyone feel great immediately. Great performance.
This was some 45 years ago, think about that! Frampton, as far as I know, is still playing / touring, there's a great interview with him on the Rick Beato channel, as well as a 'what makes this song great' reaction which goes into the nuts and bolts of the chords, production, etc. - both are worth a listen, Peter is so humble, and is a top quality person and musician.
Ive watched A LOT of reaction videos of young people enjoying and appreviating our music from the 70s. YOUR REACTION TO FRAMPTON AND THIS SONG IS MY FAVORITE OF ALL. EVER. You do feel like we Do. (did)
🥳 Saw it live in the 70's. Loved it. And that IS his voice doing that on a box. He was named one of the top guitarists of all time by Rolling Stone. I actually saw him about 5 times. One of them with David Bowie. He is referred to as a musicians musician
I saw Peter do this song at the L.A. Forum in 1977. Frampton played a guitar solo, then a piano solo, then a drum solo in the same song… a 30 minute version of this song….AMAZING
Guys this was awesome. You said, I want to see it. Watch him play the guitar in tune with his voice. It’s very difficult. Peter was a great guy. Watch him smile and have a great time. He was loved for always giving a great show and being just a great person. Also one of the top ten guitarist in my opinion. When SRV compliments you in your guitar playing you must be good. Play the song again please with the concert live on the Saturday night special. Just put Peter Frampton do you feel like I do Saturday night special. And watch it. I would love to watch it with you
I forget the year this came out, but it was #1 on the chart all summer long. I must have heard it a thousand times, literally! It takes me back to one of the best times of my Life.
The '70s!!! 1970.. I was 13 starting High School; "Stairway to Heaven" was our 8th-grade float theme. 1976 I graduated from High School= Frampton Comes Alive!! Imagine all of the MUSIC in between. I got to live the 60s as a child and hear these songs on the radio, watched the Beatles debut on Ed Sullivan w/my sisters and my mother. Rocked the '70s as a teen, and in the '80s started my 20s. Concerts I attended: Elton John, Diana Ross, Styx, Heart, the original Lynrd Skynrd (twice), Chicago, Neil Diamond, Bob Seeger (2x), Blue Oyster Cult, and more. I had no idea how singularly special that time in music was.
Fantastic reaction to a legendary guitarist and musician. Please react to the video of the live performance. It’s worth watching Frampton live! His enthusiasm and passion is infectious. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
he has a live video...saw him twice in LA. the crowd of 50,000 would make your ears and eyes bleed. yeah talk box through his gibson les paul black beauty guitar ...quite a thing to experience
"Bob Mayo, on keyboards!" Damn right. Rest in peace, Bob. I was 15 when this came out in 1975, and we had never heard anything like it before. The band was spot-on. Listen to the studio version of the song and you'll think "It's OK". But the live version was mind blowing. The first time I heard it was when the album was released and a local rock station played it end to end sides 1,2,3 and 4 (2-record set). I got it all recorded on cassette, and later bought the album (more than once, LP and later CD). #1 selling album on the charts for years!
I agree 70's was the top of rock music. When I first heard this Frampton song I had heard of but never heard Frampton perform and I was just as blown away as you two. Definitely one of all time favorites! Thanks a entertaining reaction.
I was one of the lucky ones to see this tour in Dayton (or Cincy?) Ohio. We were all blown away! I knew of Peter from Humble Pie and Framptons Camel, but this was one of the greatest live albums of my generation. Yes, that is a guitar through a talk-box. The guitar notes come up through a tube into Peter’s mouth and he makes words/sounds by moving his throat/mouth/lips! As you can imagine….we were all blown away!
just so you guys know, I got to experience this live and in person at a place called Sun Tan lake near Riverdale New Jersey in 1992. It was a perfect summer day and I laid on a picnic table and listen to this live. It was the most peaceful restful memorable moment of my life. I could’ve died there and it would not have been a waste. What a performer and what show. I was about 22 then and now I’m 52. I got a real kick out of your reaction. It brought back memories for me. And I’m sure if you were their life you would’ve even enjoyed it more. But you guys are right there’s something about the song that’s just awesome.
Glad to watch you enjoying this, I've been enjoying it for 50 years. It still sets my soul on fire, every time I listen. Yes, the effect was Peter playing a black, three-pickup Les Paul through a talk-box. Rock on, there's so much more to discover!
I agree, the 70’s had the best music. I was born in 1961, so this was my time. I was the perfect age to thoroughly enjoy the music and all these great bands. It really was a great time to have both your youth and this music. So glad you guys recognize the greatness of 70’s music. It was an awesome time to be growing up. Great reaction, guys.
I was waiting for that look at each other (8:05). This song is unbelievable. Still gives me chills!! That is a talk box. He does this live on The Midnight Special!!!
Your so right,..for me,..that was the only way I ever saw Peter, Pink Floyd (til I was in my 30's,!, but by then Roger Waters had broke from them,..it was David Gilmore, but it was still blast, in the stratosphere experience), David Bowie, so many I missed at the time,..was in grade school, then junior high,..but it was still like being at a concert,..at least I got to see them in tv,..thank God for Ed Sullivan, and Midnight Special,..Ed and Wolfman Jack, Rip,..they brought the show into our homes,..Godspeed, Peace ✌
Good news❗ Peter Frampton is now on tour. March 16th 2024 he performs in Windsor Ontario Canada and after that throughout the USA. He is in a seventies now so this may be your last opportunity.... please don't miss it❗ He's incredible incredible incredible. I saw him in Denver back in 2011 and it was definitely the highlight of my 5 years living in the usa.
I was at this concert, although, I didn't realize it until years later. I remember thinking after hearing the album, "Wow! All his shows sound alike!". LOL! San Francisco Winterland. It was a great night!
‘I want to see it’ Dude, you NEED to see it. You need to see where these sounds are coming from and just how gifted Frampton was/is. The version on the Midnight Special is a good place to start. ❤️
He was "talking" before you realized it!! Go listen again...and again....and again!!!! So much to hear!!!🎵🎼🎶🥁🥁🎧🎹🎤🎙🎸🤘🤘🤘🤘
If you were a teen in the 70's you owned this album!
it was a must! I have since passed it down to my son (the only one with an actual turntable) LOL.
And, if you were a girl, like me, you had his poster on your br wall!!
Never owned the album but I did see him in concert. Great show, great night.
Sure did!
❤
Imagine hearing this when it came out...
We we stunned...
Many of us wete stoned and stunned...
❤👍
Still are ......!
My teenage years started in 71 so the 70's for me were F-ing great and still the best music experience nothing touches it!!
the late 60s and 70s had the best music ever and many after were inspired by the music of those eras
By far the best reaction video to Peter Frampton. You guy's definitely felt it & got it!!
My very first concert. August 1976 and I was almost 14. I had a blast. I miss those years.
Watch Peter Midnight Special LIVE he’s so adore and smiles and rocks that guitar and he’s just 1 of a kind
He was adorable for sure.
This is the era when the Guitars Gods walked among us. I feel so fortunate to have lived and partied in this era.
We were the luckiest litter of kids in any of the "histories" of this planet!😂
Easy to hear as well that all the other members of his band were incredible musicians as well.
MUST watch this performance on The Midnight Special !!! You'll get to see Frampton singing, playing all those great guitar riffs, and using the talk box. Great reaction as always guys !!! ✌💖🌻🐝😷🎶/

Yes he was inducted! So well deserved.
Pure rock n roll goodness. I'm 60 now. Every time I hear this now I cry. Not sure why, but I do.

One of the Five best performance in live , ever

Nothing tops the 70’s music… top on!
It's worth being as old as I am now, to have lived through these epic musical times!😁
So much fun to re-live it with a new generation!
You said it. Just turned 60 and I can appreciate it all so much more than in my teenage years
Isn't that the truth!!! I've been enjoying these videos for the past couple years now and it gives me some hope that all is not lost. 🎶✌️❤️🎶

I was driving in my camaro listening to this on 8 track. Best music ever rock on Peter
Probably one of the best LP there was/is.

I was 11 when this came out. Best era of music. Growing up in the South Lynyrd Skynyrd was my favorite
Wonderfull album 70s !!!
A classic! 🤘😎🇺🇸
He was always playing the guitar, as he used the talk box. It was never just him talking.
I got ya. Every damn step of the way.
Back in the 70's all my work friends went to see Peter. I stayed behind and worked. Still kicking my ass for not going!
70’s rock was the best music ever!!! So many outstanding rock bands and I heard them all for the first time like we all did!!!!!!!!
I'm pretty sure up to this point it was the biggest selling live album ever recorded. If you were a boomer into rock in the 70s this *WAS* in your record collection. It wasn't even a question. And although it had been used before, it really introduced a lot of people to the voice box guitar effect. That sound blew people out of the water. I was lucky enough to see him perform this in the early 2000s in Grant Park Chicago and it was every bit as historic as you can imagine. We in the audience played our parts well LOL, and I was suddenly 18 all over again.
HOW TERRIFIC!🥰
Proud younger boomer here. 60 and so blessed I had all this great music in my teenage years 😁
Actually it WAS the largest selling record ever, at the time. ☮️
This is the best version
Love this album - everyone had this playing all summer long on the hot beaches of Galveston. Saw him in Houston in 78’ doing acoustic w Doobie Brothers. What a concert. Frampton is the best. Thanks for playing !
WOWWW.. You’re not lying that was a concert!😍
It was a huge album here in Australia too
I just wrote about the same thing before I read your comment. Hey, I'm in Houston. So we already know. Lol. Can you believe we are using words like "lol" to communicate? We didn't have cellphones or computers, but we were happy (and stoned), as hell. They'll never know : )
I am 62 years old. When I was a sophomore in high school, this song was on the radio every half hour. Peter Frampton became a massive rock star in no time.
I don't think I knew ANYONE that didn't have FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE--He's awesome--read his back story.
You guys are right 💯%!!
You say this performance was off the charts, and you couldn't be more right! Yes, there are other versions of this song live, but they don't hold a candle to THIS performance. There was definitely magic in the air that night. Every note was perfect, and perfectly executed!! One of the very best live performances ever, no doubt! I was 8 years old when this record came out, and yes, thank goodness for my older siblings in the house, they got it!!! This along with The Eagles Hotel California, Boston, Fleetwood Mac Rumors, that also came out that year...come on man!! 🤘🤘
I was 16 years old when I went to a Peter Frampton concert at Bobby Maduro Baseball Stadium in Miami in 1976. It was a great show, and it was my concert. The talking effect during Frampton's guitar solo was a pedal connected to a wire that ran up to a mouthpiece connected to the microphone. Frampton would use the mouthpiece and varying weight on the pedal to create a talking effect via his guitar. It was really interesting and great to see and hear. Unforgettable.
Gentlemen...I have heard this song hundreds of times in my life and I still get goosebumps, especially when I see this being new to someone who's never heard it. This was the greatest era of music, without question. 1976 was the greatest single year in all genres.
This Album was issued in the mail, if you were a teenager, in the 70’s. Everyone had this album!!!! 🎸🔥🤘
Absolutely!!🎸 🔥
Peter Frampton is one of the Best !!!
@ modmary: I was, and I did 😉
I've seen Frampton do this song live several times and he always put on a great show! I have seen a good percentage of the bands you react to live and I always feel blessed to have been able have actually seen them. It is a real shame that there is nothing out there for guys like you to be able to experience this kinda thing live! Back in the 70's there were no Db limits so you could actually feel the kick drum and bass guitar thumping your body! Your ears would also be ringing for a few days but you really didn't care!
Me too!
Nothing but pure talent in the 70's
Great reaction! Playing the Les Paul like it should be played!
Saw Frampton during the '70s at 17 years old at those famous Day on the Green Concerts in Oakland CA. The music was the best. I'll never forget the 70's music. I may be old but I saw a lot of good bands 😁
Peter Frampton was always a favorite of mine even in his early days in the band HUMBLE PIE, which they had hits of their own. Peter Frampton later caught my attention with the 1975 hit " Show Me the Way". He is best known for his hit album " Frampton Comes Alive! which sold more than 10 million copies. He is a great singer but his guitar playing really stood out." I'm In You" is also a song worth listening to. Oh how I miss the Midnight Special so many great acts back then featured on that show, you guys would have really enjoyed it.
I’m with you on the 2 songs (plus this one we heard). “I’m In You”was the ULTIMATE in sexy for me back then. I haven’t heard it in so long… maybe it still is!😃😆
Humble Pie was fabulous too!
His father was David Bowie's art instructor in secondary school and he used to listen to Buddy Holly songs with David on lunch breaks. Cool guy
So glad you reacted to Frampton! He is a LEGEND. That album is especially well-known in the U.S. as one of the top selling albums of all times. Really enjoyed the reaction guys. Thank you!
The talk box is hooked up to the guitar and the two make a sound together by the guitar player simultaneously talking into the box while operating the electric guitar.
I THINK(?) David Gilmore used it sometimes but I’m not 100% sure.
Peter Frampton is still alive with us today and seems like a very nice guy not that I know him-lol.
I remember in the 70’s when I was a little girl I had an older teenager friend/neighbor who called me over to her house one day and brought me into her bedroom, slapped some head phones on me and said”LOOK AT HIM!!😍” It was his
“I’m In You” album and I never was the same.Sexxxxyyyyy🥵
😁J in Tx
David Gilmore does use the talk box on the track "Pigs" ...and is seen on live performances using it.
Joe Walsh used the talk box too in Rocky mountain way
@@jimled50jl49 yes , he also used it in the track " keep talking" from Division Bell.
@@QuadRippler Yes - Such a great track with Stephen Hawking lending a hand with the lyrics. Brilliant !
Actually, the Talk-Box ( back then) was run off of a separate guitar amp with the speakers disconnected and the signal from the guitar going to the box instead. The box had a driver that fed the guitar signal into a long plastic tube and out into the player's mouth, who could mouth the words or just make sounds. The tube usually was mounted on the mic stand, so the guitar sounds ( altered) could be picked up by the vocal mic and sent to the big P.A speakers. The player doesn't sing, the guitar does that, replacing the voice. The first one I heard of in 1970 was made by Kustom Electronics and was enclosed in a psychedelic bag that the player wore strapped to their back. It was called " The Bag" ,but while looking really cool was somewhat awkward to actually use. I first heard it on Iron Butterfly and Steppenwolf's albums around that time. I didn't have one, but held one in the store when nobody was looking. It had a paisley cloth pattern with 3 inch long white fringe around the bottom. Looked a lot like a ladies purse, which probably explains why it wasn't a success until later when somebody else made it into a floor unit, like Frampton used a little later on in the 70s. Today's fx boxes imitate this by plugging a mic and guitar into a circuit that replicates the effect, but you do have to sing into the mic to get any sound, which comes out of the regular guitar amp. It sounds really complicated, but is actually quite simple. At the end of the Talk-Box section you can hear Peter Frampton sing along with the guitar ( voice and Talk-Box ) on the last " Whoa!" . Don't doubt me .
I'm so glad you did this version and not the live version. Great reaction. 🙂
I saw him back in the 70's at an outdoor stadium concert in Philadelphia, WOW is all I can say, I remember every minute, what a great musician!!❤❤
PLEASE EXIT TO THE LEFT OF THE RIDE!!!!!❤❤❤❤
this was their best performance of this song. A friend brought this live version to my house in the 70,s said you got here this to believe it. midnight special was good but i think this performance was the best had just the right atmosphere.
70s is Da Best!!
Many girls in the 70's (including myself) had Peter Frampton posters on our walls. The boys had Linda Rondstat in short shorts with roller skates 😂❤. I believe that sound is called a voice box. I think he was the first person to use it but he was closely followed by Joe Walsh from The Eagles
The wife and kids dread this song coming on Sirius on road trips - the volume in the family SUV goes to about 18 to accommodate my rock 'n' roll and artillery ears. This and "Hush" drive the family nuts...
I was there! Right after it hit all of the FM radio stations. It was everywhere.
30 seconds after he starts this song you could hardly see the stage through the smoke! Do You Feel Like We Do? Yes you did, you didn't have a choice.
Great show, great album
Great reaction Bros! You are right…. You can’t top the 70s for the sheer quantity of great music! This one was one of those feel good songs that could make everyone feel great immediately. Great performance.
This was some 45 years ago, think about that! Frampton, as far as I know, is still playing / touring, there's a great interview with him on the Rick Beato channel, as well as a 'what makes this song great' reaction which goes into the nuts and bolts of the chords, production, etc. - both are worth a listen, Peter is so humble, and is a top quality person and musician.
Ive watched A LOT of reaction videos of young people enjoying and appreviating our music from the 70s. YOUR REACTION TO FRAMPTON AND THIS SONG IS MY FAVORITE OF ALL. EVER. You do feel like we Do. (did)
YAY - in 1976 my Father took me to mall to buy my first album & I chose this;)
🥳 Saw it live in the 70's. Loved it. And that IS his voice doing that on a box. He was named one of the top guitarists of all time by Rolling Stone. I actually saw him about 5 times. One of them with David Bowie. He is referred to as a musicians musician
The "talk box" or" squawk box " is like he is talking through his guitar...amazing at the time.
I saw Peter do this song at the L.A. Forum in 1977. Frampton played a guitar solo, then a piano solo, then a drum solo in the same song… a 30 minute version of this song….AMAZING
Guys this was awesome. You said, I want to see it. Watch him play the guitar in tune with his voice. It’s very difficult. Peter was a great guy. Watch him smile and have a great time. He was loved for always giving a great show and being just a great person. Also one of the top ten guitarist in my opinion. When SRV compliments you in your guitar playing you must be good. Play the song again please with the concert live on the Saturday night special. Just put Peter Frampton do you feel like I do Saturday night special. And watch it. I would love to watch it with you
I forget the year this came out, but it was #1 on the chart all summer long. I must have heard it a thousand times, literally! It takes me back to one of the best times of my Life.
The '70s!!! 1970.. I was 13 starting High School; "Stairway to Heaven" was our 8th-grade float theme. 1976 I graduated from High School= Frampton Comes Alive!! Imagine all of the MUSIC in between. I got to live the 60s as a child and hear these songs on the radio, watched the Beatles debut on Ed Sullivan w/my sisters and my mother. Rocked the '70s as a teen, and in the '80s started my 20s. Concerts I attended: Elton John, Diana Ross, Styx, Heart, the original Lynrd Skynrd (twice), Chicago, Neil Diamond, Bob Seeger (2x), Blue Oyster Cult, and more. I had no idea how singularly special that time in music was.
It may not get better when it comes to music but have faith. True story. And everyone should get to “feel like I do”. This song is a part of history.
Fantastic reaction to a legendary guitarist and musician. Please react to the video of the live performance. It’s worth watching Frampton live! His enthusiasm and passion is infectious.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I love watching people's mind being blown by great music! 🤯
he has a live video...saw him twice in LA. the crowd of 50,000 would make your ears and eyes bleed. yeah talk box through his gibson les paul black beauty guitar ...quite a thing to experience
"Bob Mayo, on keyboards!"
Damn right. Rest in peace, Bob.
I was 15 when this came out in 1975, and we had never heard anything like it before. The band was spot-on. Listen to the studio version of the song and you'll think "It's OK". But the live version was mind blowing. The first time I heard it was when the album was released and a local rock station played it end to end sides 1,2,3 and 4 (2-record set). I got it all recorded on cassette, and later bought the album (more than once, LP and later CD). #1 selling album on the charts for years!
I agree 70's was the top of rock music. When I first heard this Frampton song I had heard of but never heard Frampton perform and I was just as blown away as you two. Definitely one of all time favorites! Thanks a entertaining reaction.
Saw Peter play this in the mid 70s, in Henrietta NY. BEST CONCERT EVER!!!
I was one of the lucky ones to see this tour in Dayton (or Cincy?) Ohio. We were all blown away! I knew of Peter from Humble Pie and Framptons Camel, but this was one of the greatest live albums of my generation. Yes, that is a guitar through a talk-box. The guitar notes come up through a tube into Peter’s mouth and he makes words/sounds by moving his throat/mouth/lips! As you can imagine….we were all blown away!
One of the best live songs ever...
just so you guys know, I got to experience this live and in person at a place called Sun Tan lake near Riverdale New Jersey in 1992. It was a perfect summer day and I laid on a picnic table and listen to this live. It was the most peaceful restful memorable moment of my life. I could’ve died there and it would not have been a waste. What a performer and what show. I was about 22 then and now I’m 52. I got a real kick out of your reaction. It brought back memories for me. And I’m sure if you were their life you would’ve even enjoyed it more. But you guys are right there’s something about the song that’s just awesome.
Glad to watch you enjoying this, I've been enjoying it for 50 years. It still sets my soul on fire, every time I listen. Yes, the effect was Peter playing a black, three-pickup Les Paul through a talk-box. Rock on, there's so much more to discover!
I agree, the 70’s had the best music. I was born in 1961, so this was my time. I was the perfect age to thoroughly enjoy the music and all these great bands. It really was a great time to have both your youth and this music. So glad you guys recognize the greatness of 70’s music. It was an awesome time to be growing up. Great reaction, guys.
I was waiting for that look at each other (8:05). This song is unbelievable. Still gives me chills!! That is a talk box. He does this live on The Midnight Special!!!
This very live performance is right here on live vid .. THE BEST ONE ..
ruclips.net/video/w01WBM8e0tw/видео.html
Your so right,..for me,..that was the only way I ever saw Peter, Pink Floyd (til I was in my 30's,!, but by then Roger Waters had broke from them,..it was David Gilmore, but it was still blast, in the stratosphere experience), David Bowie, so many I missed at the time,..was in grade school, then junior high,..but it was still like being at a concert,..at least I got to see them in tv,..thank God for Ed Sullivan, and Midnight Special,..Ed and Wolfman Jack, Rip,..they brought the show into our homes,..Godspeed, Peace ✌
Good news❗ Peter Frampton is now on tour. March 16th 2024 he performs in Windsor Ontario Canada and after that throughout the USA. He is in a seventies now so this may be your last opportunity.... please don't miss it❗ He's incredible incredible incredible. I saw him in Denver back in 2011 and it was definitely the highlight of my 5 years living in the usa.
Vote for him for the rock and roll hall of fame.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane! Damn it was awesome to have lived when all this talent emerged ‼️✌🏻😎
I was at this concert, although, I didn't realize it until years later. I remember thinking after hearing the album, "Wow! All his shows sound alike!". LOL!
San Francisco Winterland. It was a great night!
This song came out when I was 15. My friends and I would jam to this driving to the beach in Southern California!
Yes. The 70s WAS the best era for music. Glad I grew up then.
Saw Frampton do in concert not long ago. He was still as smooth as he was the first time I saw him do this song many years ago!
Thank you for reacting to the original live version. Instant subscribe. 🤘🤘
Peter was just a young guy too. Could jam and he loved the crowd. He plays it while he just smiles the whole time.
‘I want to see it’
Dude, you NEED to see it. You need to see where these sounds are coming from and just how gifted Frampton was/is. The version on the Midnight Special is a good place to start. ❤️
Thankx 4 another badass reaction guy's 😎😉🔥💯🎶🎼🎵 thankx 4 posting & sharing 🎵🎼🎶💯🔥😉😎
Yes! Singing this song is fun! The 70s were great!🥰😎😁❤️🇺🇸🇺🇦🇬🇪🇺🇸❤️
